Nick Begich III is the U.S. Representative for Alaska’s at-large congressional district, sworn in on January 3, 2025. He holds a B.B.A. in Entrepreneurship from Baylor University and an M.B.A. from Indiana University Bloomington. Before Congress, he was an entrepreneur: he founded and led FarShore Partners and co-founded Dashfire, firms involved in software development and technology services.
Begich combines business acumen with a commitment to Alaska — having returned to the state after years in the private sector. In Congress, he positions himself as a champion of Alaska’s economic growth, resource development, and conservative fiscal values. His background in entrepreneurship and technology gives him a practical-oriented mindset toward job creation, business regulation, and leveraging private-sector experience for public-policy decisions.
